It is our opinion that in the church as
in politics, there has been a gradual giv
ing way from the olcl-time anchorings;
that in consequence there is less of genu
ine piety in the church and less of pa
triotism in the hearts of the people. In
the mad chase for what is called "popu
lar religion"—something to tickle the
fancy and catch the almighty dollar, the
church, irrespective of denominational
lines, has "gone over" to the enemy. So
many evidences appear that we are some
times led to believe that the Devil's prop,
osition to the Saviour on the Mount has
since been accepted by a large number of
His professed followers, in order to bet
ter support the pomp and splendor de
manded by those who are attracted to
the "house of worship" by the highest
salaried preacher, the costliest church
ediiice, and the gayest dressed attend
ants. As in politics, so it is in religion.
There is a constant and growing tendau
cy to forsake old land-marks; both church
and State are more or less inclined to
join in the butterfly chase for spoils : and
in our yielding to suit the new order of
tliiugs, we as a nation and people are
growing undemocratic—there is less and
less of Christian simplicity, less charity,
and more style than a Paris Exposition.
—Tioga County Leader.
Gov. St., John of Kansas writes: "Our
Prohibitoiy law has been in force since
the Ist day of May, and it is already prov
ing to be a grand success. Take for il
lustration the city of Topeka, which has
a population of 20,000; there is not a sa
loon in the city, where last month there
were at least 25. This is the seventeenth
day since the law took effect, and there is
but one case of drunkenness in the po
lice court, and that was of a poor fellow
who got druuk on Hostetter's Bitters.
The man who sold him the bitters was
promptly arrested and lined JjilO. I re
spectfully call upon the advocates of li
censed dramshops to point to a single
town in the United States of even half
the population of the city of Topeka that
can present such a grand record for so
briety as Topoka presents since the law
took effect. There is not an open saloon
iu Kansas outside of the cities of Leaven
worth and Atchiuson, and in those towns
sixteen prosecutions are in progress."
There continues to be more demand
than supply at the Castle Garden Labor
Bureau in New York, and this in face of
unprecedent emigration. This is signif
icant of activity in private and corporate
enterprises, and iu commerce and manu
factures, but it is still more significant of
new homes and wealth-producing fields
in the great West. This country is
young yet.
Ilartmaun, the Nihilist, states that he
has no fear of extradition. The question
was never raised in England while he was
there. The Nihilist wish a constitution
al government and would oppose nothing
desired by the people. If there is no
j change of policy the Czar will die; if his
I successor pursues a similar policy he will
be killed, and so on. Hartmaiin declares
i that he does not intend to organize a So
cialistic or Nihilistic party in this conn*
I try.
A queer announcement comes from
Maclrid. The Spanish Finance Minister
says he will henceforth publish the truth
about the condition of the Treasury. lie
begins by stating that Cubji has an un
liquidated debt of about ninety millions
of dollars of which the Spanish public
seems not to have been aware. Cuba is
the richest possession of the Spanish
crown, but her affairs have always been
badly if not dishonestly managed.
The mortal remains of Lieut. Nathan
Davis and his wife repose peacefully in
the old burying ground at Harwinton,
Conn. lie died in 1875, and she a year
later, and each was ninety-seven years
old when the mortal coil was shuffled off.
One headstone serves for both graves,
and upon it are inserted two stanzas of
elegiac verse, of which the following is a
literal copy :
"Death is a det
that's justly due
that I hare paid
and so must you."
"This det I owe
is justly due
and I am come to
sleep with you."
Mrs. Davis is still celebrated in Litch
field County as the woman who, in her
nineties, shot a bear in her garden on a
Sunday morning.

This remedy is something new, both as to name
and composition. This is one of the wonders of the
world. This Syrup, 1 claim, is better and more
effective than any other ever offered to the opie of
America or any other country, and what 1 say of
this I can prove, This Syrup, like the Pills, is
harmless and safe. It contains no opium or other
narcotic poison, like the most Syrup, and is not dis
agreeable to take. Any child will take it. And it
will cure any and all inflammations arising from
Cold. It is superior to all others in every respect
and especially for the following reasons:
Ist- It will cure Croup every time.
2d. It will cure Inflammation of the Lungs.
3d. It will cure Quinsy.
4th It will cure Whooping Cough.
sth It will cure Bronchitis.
Oth It will cure Hoarseness.
7th It will cure Sore Throat.
Bth It will cure any Cold.
9th It will cure Congestion of the Lungs.
10th It will cum any Cough.
11th It will cure Scarlet Fever.
12th. It is the best remedy that any one can take
for Consumption, and if taken in the first stage I
will guarantee a cure.
13tli. It is perfectly safe for all ages as there is
nothing in its composition that can harm a child.
